I was born on September 11, 1982 in Gorlovka of Donetsk region. Father, Istomin Leonid Vladimirovich. Mother Istomina Vera Ivanovna.
    I got my basic education at school N30 of Gorlovka. There I had studied until the 9th form and continued my education at school N52. In 1999
I entered Donetsk State Technical
University (DonSTU) by rating exams to specialty 7.091604 "Chemical
technology of fuel and carbon materials".
I chose DonSTU because it is well known in my country and all
over the world, also I prefer natural sciences. From the 1st course, I had only
"good" and "excellent" marks, after the 3rd course I studied only on "excellent"
marks. In addition, I took part in All-Ukrainian Olympics:
- 2000 year - Organic and Analitic Chemistry in Donetsk - 1th
place
- 2002 year - Chemistry for Chemistry technologists in Dniepropetrovsk - 26nd
place
- 2003 year - "Chemical technology of fuel" in Donetsk - 1st place
   2002 I was invited to the meeting of the best students with
the rector of our university , also was awarded by the
deed for success in study.
    In 2003, I passed exams and received the honours
bachelor's degree in Chemical tecnology. Now I am a student of the magistraits
of the Physical and Organic chemistry department. In 2003, I received nominal
scholarship from the Supporting Progressive Reforms Fund.In 2004, I received nominal
scholarship from the Ministers Cabinet of Ukraine.
The 4-thiazolidones, especially with amid group, are well
known as good pharmaceuticals, even in HIV curing and have many other useful
properties, but they are not well studied, so we trying to change this
situation. Our research in positive ortho-effect of the sulfonyl sulfur is held
in the collaboration with the department of Common Chemistry, which are led by professor Saranchuk V. I.
   My science supervisors are well known as good professionals in their field
in Ukraine, so I am proud of
working with these people. In future, I'm going to work in the field of Chemistry professionally.
